  • Simplicity that disappoints

    Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Nov 12, 2006
    Pros: reduces clutter, decent surround, cheap, light, elegant.
    Cons: no sound controls, poor sub, limited connections, worrisome distortions.

    Summary: The Philips HTS6500 is an elegant and simple surround sound solution that promises a lot to people with tight spaces, tight budgets, or little patience. Being a long time home theater devotee I am at a point when just the speakers of the TV would never ... read more

  • Waste of money!

    Pros: Good sound if you do not need it to play DVD's!  Sharp looking.
    Cons: DVD player is junk.  Not really "surround sound" at all.  Read on...

    Summary: I have had this unit since 3/08 and after the first month it stopped playing nice with DVD's.  I do not even use it very often, and I am constantly ejecting and reinserting over and over. Sometims it "catches" and I am in business, other times I use ... read more

    Pros: Best 2.1 1080i up converting DVD/HTiB on the market for under $300.00
    Cons: Needlessly large sub.

    Summary: I wanted a system that would nicely complement my Plasma without a terrible expense and without having to spend a fortune or have too much of a headache with respect to setup. I also needed to upgrade my current DVD player to one that will up convert ... read more

    Pros: sound, simplicity, cost
    Cons: none

    Summary: I will start off by saying that I am not a person who writes reviews, ever. But I have read several reviews on this product and just felt I had to chime in. I have seen a couple different times that the sub on this system is weak. I think that is ... read more

    Pros: Sound is ok
    Cons: Everything Else

    Summary: If that's what you want to deal with for the liffe of the unit than this unit is for you. If you want a reliable sound system with DVD player I would recommennd any other system on the face of the

  • It's a piece of junk

    Pros: The limited time it worked (about 3 months), it was fine
    Cons: no way to control bass, treble, etc.

    Summary: PLEASE!!!  Don't take my word for it.  Google the all the "NO DISC" error messages.  You'll find that after a very short period of time, the 6500 will no longer recognise commerical DVDs.  It works fine for CD and home burned

  • JUNK

    Pros: compact
    Cons: IT'S JUNK

    Summary: I service the home theater display at a major chain that has this model and every time I walk in to check on the display this model and the HTS3544 is not working. With the HTS6500 It either has no sound or the sound is distorted. It seems that this

    Pros: Easy set-up, HDMI DVD upscaler and AM-FM tuner sound very good! compact,CD's, MP3, JPEG.
    Cons: No overpowering sub woofer, TV input volume is just OK, remote has built-in delay.

    Summary: This is a HTIB, A 'home theater in a box'. Everything is included except a $49 HDMI cable. The good: sleek, modern, and compact, this HTIB has tons of features! Most important it has DVD upscaling to 720P/1080i and a HDMI connection to your new HDTV that

    Pros: Sound quality, picture quality, ease of use, and PRICE.
    Cons: Lack of input connections. Does not replace a full function reciever

    Summary: Just got the system and I couldn't be happier. Sound: Listened to parts of Star Wars and Superman Returns. Sounds fantastic. The 2.1 system really does replicate a surround sound system. Great if you don't want to fuss with rear speaker wires.

  • SYSTEM HAS FUTURISTIC QUALITIES: SIGHT & SOUND

    Sep 17, 2006
    Pros: Great looking, HDMI output, sound and picture are pure.
    Cons: None - Unit is the future of 2 & 1 speaker multi-channel sound.

    Summary: I have been visiting many showrooms to see and hear all home theaters that I could before I made a choice to buy. Panasonic with its wireless advantages, Samsung with its eastern qualities, and this Philips Home Theater, that won my admiration for its
